    rbd: fix error handling from rbd_snap_name() · 08518f6f

    commit da6a6b63978d45f9ae582d1f362f182012da3a22 upstream.
    
    rbd_snap_name() calls rbd_dev_v{1,2}_snap_name() depending on the
    format of the image. The format 1 version returns NULL on error, which
    is handled by the caller. The format 2 version returns an ERR_PTR,
    which the caller of rbd_snap_name() does not expect.
    
    Fortunately this is unlikely to occur in practice because
    rbd_snap_id_by_name() is called before rbd_snap_name(). This would hit
    similar errors to rbd_snap_name() (like the snapshot not existing) and
    return early, so rbd_snap_name() would not hit an error unless the
    snapshot was removed between the two calls or memory was exhausted.
    
    Use an ERR_PTR in rbd_dev_v1_snap_name() so that the specific error
    can be propagated, and it is consistent with rbd_dev_v2_snap_name().
    Handle the ERR_PTR in the only rbd_snap_name() caller.
